CITY OF SHAKOPEE
MEMORANDUM
To: Mayor and City Council
Mark McNeill, City Administrator
From: Mark Themig, Parks, Recreation & Facilities Director
Meeting Date: June 15, 2004
Subject: Consideration of Aggregate Industries Quarry Acquisition
INTRODUCTION
City Council is asked to consider making an offer to Aggregate Industries for purchase of
their restored quarry in Shakopee.
BACKGROUND
The Prior Lake Water Ski Association approached the Parks and Recreation Advisory
Board in 2001 about using Lake O'Dowd Park for a practice location. Under their plan,
the park would have provided spectator seating and a staging area for their participants.
The Advisory Board recommended against this use, but encouraged the Water Ski
Association to approach some of the quarries in the area about using their sites.
Prior Lake Water Ski Association made contact with Aggregate Industries about using
their reclaimed quarry in eastern Shakopee. Aggregate Industries agreed to limited use
of the quarry for water ski practice in 2003, and has extended their lease agreement for
2004.
In September of 2003, John Davis of the Prior Lake Water Ski Association approached
the city about partnering with the Water Ski Association for future development of the
quarry. The Water Ski Association had learned that Aggregate Industries might be
interested in donating a portion of the site and using the donation for tax purposes. The
Water Ski Association was looking for partners since their use would primarily involve
the water surface.
Over the course of the next few months, representatives from the following organizations
joined the discussion on reuse of the site and formed the Quarry Lake Reuse Project
Committee:
. Aggregate Industries
. Prior Lake Water Ski Association
. City of Shakopee
. Minnesota DNR Fisheries
. Minnesota DNR Trails and Waterways
. Outdoor Heritage Education Center (OHEC)
. Xcel Energy
. Amateur Riders Motor Cycle Association (ARMCA)
. Prior Lake-Spring Lake Watershed District
. Lower Minnesota Watershed District
r..
\

.
The Quarry Lake Reuse Project Committee analyzed how multiple complimentary uses
could be accommodated on the site, including education, entertainment, recreation, and
natural resource preservation. The outcome of this process is the Quarry Lake Program
Document (Attachment A).
Several key concepts in the program document were presented to Council in December
2003:
. Aggregate I ndustries would donate the majority of the site. (74 acres of water and 22
acres of lake shore). Initially, Aggregate intended to sell the northwest corner for
industrial use (-8 acres), but appeared to be open to a sale to OHEC for an
education. Aggregate intends to retain ownership of the northeast corner (-20 acres)
for industrial operations. At some point in the future, they may be willing to sell this
portion also.
. Prior Lake Water Ski Association would be a primary partner at the site, and have
exclusive rights to the surface of the water during certain times (yet to be
determined). They would also help fund improvements.
. Initially, OHECwould have located an education center and museum in the Valley
Green Business Park. (See Attachment B.) However, they lost tho option to
purchase this property. Since that time, Aggregate indicated support for selling the
eight-acre industrial portion to OHEC.
. DNR Fisheries has preliminary tests from three seasons that indicate the lake would
be one of the premier habitats for Trout in Minnesota. DNR would commit to stocking
the lake.
. DNR Trails and Waterways would help to fund improvements at the site, including a
possible youth A TV training area in conjunction with the OHEC facility. Amateur
Riders Motor Cycle Association (ARMCA) would assist in developing the training
site.
. XcelEnergy has indicated that public passive recreation use (trails, picnicking, etc.)
of their 40-acre open site west of the peaking plant would be feasible.
. The city would take ownership of the site as a park, recreation, and open space
amenity. The sites' proximity to the Prior Lake Outlet Channel, future greenway, and
future pedestrian crossing from the Southbridge neighborhood would enhance its
desirability as a park and open space area.
In December 2003, Council authorized staff to seek proposals and enter into an
agreement with a design firm (if under $10,000) for taking the concepts outlined in the
program document and developing concept plans and cost estimates. Bonestroo,
Rosene, and Anderlik was interviewed by the committee this month and selected for this
project. They are currently developing plans for reuse of a quarry in Rochester as a park,
and can apply much of their experience to this project. Their fee is $9,820 and their work
will begin later this month. We expect concept plans and cost estimates in August. The
DNR, Xcel Energy, Prior Lake Water Ski Association and the City are funding this work.
DISCUSSION
City Council is being asked to consider making an offer to Aggregate Industries for
acquisition of the site. Originally, the city would have likely received a majority of the site
as a donation, and OHEC would have purchased the eight acres of industrial for their
education 'center. However, apparently OHEC has not yet finalized financing for the land
purchase.
Bob Bieraugel, Aggregate Industries' Assistant Vice President for Properties and
Community Relations, informed the Quarry Reuse Project Committee on June 7 that
"
\.:
Aggregate Industries has received inquiries about purchasing all or some of the site for
other industrial uses. He expressed concern that if OHEC was not able to provide a
purchase offer to Aggregate, the entire site or a portion of it could be sold for other uses.
If sold to another users, it raises questions about whether or not the site would serve the
purposes described above.
Aggregate Industries conducted an appraisal for the site in April 2004 (Attachment C).
The appraisal concluded the market value of the site is:
8 Acres Industrial $ 592,500
+/-74 Acre Lake and 22 Acres of Land Surroundina Lake $1 ,066.400
Total 104 Acres Being Considered $1,658,900
Since the property owner performed the appraisal, we would recommend that the city
have a review of the appraisal on the city's behalf to confirm its validity.
2004 property taxes for the southern half of the site are $2,110 (lake and shore, PI D#
279110060), and $13,368 for the northern half (PID# 279020200). The northern half
includes the 20-acre northeast portion that Aggregate would retain ownership for
industrial purposes and would continue to be on taxable property. There would also
need to be a subdivision application to subdivide the portion of the parcel that Aggregate
would retain.
Mr. Bieraugel indicated that Aggregate Industries would be receptive to an offer from the
city for purchase of the 104 acres for $250,000. If Council would choose to make this
offer and Aggregate Industries accepted it, Aggregate would take the remainingvalueof
the property as a donation.
If Council chooses to proceed with the purchase offer, the use of the eight acres of
industrial would need to be decided at a future time. There appear to be at least four
options:
1. Retain and incorporate it into the overall park site.
2. Sell to OHEC.
3. Enter into a long-term land lease with OHEC.
4. Sell or enter into a lease with another organization.
The eight acres of industrial is still being used for storage, and debris needs to be
cleaned up on the site. Mr. Bieraugel has indicated that Aggregate Industries would
clean up the property.
Finally, the concept planning and cost estimates will not be completed until August.
However, in order to represent some future costs should the city choose to acquire the
site, the preliminary CIP contains $400,000 in funding from the park reserve fund in
2006, and $150,000 in 2007.
BUDGET IMPACT
This purchase would most likely be funded from the park reserve fund. The most recent
update of the fund balance with known revenue yet to be received is as follows:
Balance on 5/31/04: $3,090,298
Dean Lakes 2nd Addition Contribution: $ 42,217 (estimate)
Sale of Land to SPUC: $ 126,000
Reimbursement for SPUC Well Field Improvements: $ 158,887
Total Estimated Funds Available $3,417,402
r
/
;
Assuming the above revenue scenario and the preliminary 2004-2009 CIP for parks
(Attachment D), the park reserve fund would have adequate funds for this purchase in
2004, However, as you can see below, additional funding for future park development
projects is still needed, or proposed projects would need to be delayed.

REQUESTED ACTION
Council is asked to decide whether or not you would like to make on offer on the
purchase of the Aggregate Industries Quarry site in Shakopee. If you choose to do so, I
would recommend that the offer be made contingent on the following:
1. Review of the property appraisal on the city's behalf.
2. Aggregate Industries agrees to cleanup the debris and construction material on the
industrial portion.
3. That a formal purchase agreement be brought forward to Council for your review.

Introduction and History
Aggregate Industries and Quarry lake
Aggregate Industries (hereafter Aggregate) owns approximately 127 acres between Highways
101 and 169, just south of Raceway Park in Shakopee, Minnesota. Quarry Lake, the unofficial
name for the body of water that was created by Aggregate's limestone quarrying operation,
measures approximately 74 acres. Aggregate is interested in making a charitable contribution of
the lake and a portion of the buffer-land and reclaimed slopes around the lake, totaling
approximately 105 acres.
While the site is no longer a working quarry, industrial operations continue nearby. Aggregate
leases the northeast corner of the land (about 22 acres) to Bituminous Roadways. Raceway
Park, the Xcel Energy Blue Lake Peaking Power Generation Plant, and a large Xcel Energy
substation are all juxtaposed to the Quarry Lake property.
Aggregate, one of the leading producers of construction aggregates in the region, is committed to
beneficial mine-land reclamation and to the communities where it operates. The company
maintains a substantial environmental management system through which it has been able to
attain ISO 14001 Certification (international environmental performance standard). Now that
quarry operations have been completed at the site, Aggregate would like to see it preserved and
used for multiple complementary purposes for the public good.
OHEC and the PlWSA
The Outdoor Education Heritage Center (OHEC), and the Prior Lake Waterski Association
(PLWSA) both recognized the great potential for this unique water resource. They contacted
Aggregate in.late 2000 to explore possibilities for this site.
OHEC was interested in establishing an outdoor heritage education center on a "living breathing
lake," with aquatic education, a fish and wildlife museum and conservation showcase area with
nature trails.
PLWSA envisioned the site as a destination for competition and practice for metro area water-
skiers and fans. The Club would also promote and sponsor public events, including regular Ski
Shows, water-ski clinics, and potentially as home to a stop on the Professional Waterski and
Wakeboard Tours.
Quarry Lake's proximity to the corridor that includes the Shakopee attractions ValleyFair,
Canterbury Downs, Murphy's Landing, Raceway Park, and the Renaissance Festival makes
Quarry Lake a great location for OHEC and PLWSA.
During June 2003, the PLWSA and Aggregate Industries entered into a License Agreement,
whereby, under certain conditions, Aggregate granted PLWSA members access to and use of
Quarry Lake. This agreement was renewed for 2004. During the ski season, members use
Quarry Lake for Show Team and competition practice.
Quarry lake Committee
A common vision for multiple complementary usage and preservation of this great resource is
growing, and continues to gain support and attract additional partners. A Quarry lake
Committee was formed, and now includes these stakeholders: Aggregate, PlWSA, OHEC, the
City of Shakopee, the Prior lake - Spring lake Watershed District, the lower Minnesota
River Watershed District, Xcel Energy, the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources
(both the Trials and Waterways and the Fisheries and Wildlife Divisions), and the Amateur
Riders Motorcycle Association (ARMCA).
Additional stakeholders bring additional use possibilities. The City's Parks & Recreation
Department plans a greenway along the west edge of the site, an_a sees potential for citizens to
,
r
enjoy the park amenities, ski shows, special events, and fishing for families and seniors. The
DNR's Fishing in the Neighborhood program is enthused about the potential for a sustainable
trout fishery. The DNR's Trails & Waterways Division is interested not only in the site's potential
connections to recreational trails planned in the vicinity, but also in providing All Terrain Vehicle
(ATV) and Off Highway Motorcycle (OHM) safety training and education activities, space for the
PLWSA, and for public access fishing.
Compelling Plan
Together over the past year, the Quarry Lake Committee has worked to articulate and integrate
these diverse interests into a complementary vision for multiple uses of this great natural
resource. This project demonstrates the positive outcomes that can be achieved and sustained
when a diverse group of stakeholders cooperate for the greater good.
Our plan:
. Makes beneficial use of a reclaimed quarry.
. Preserves the natural features of the site.
. Provides unique, multiple recreational uses for the public good.
. Ensures the compatibility of the new uses with existing industrial users..
. Provides for an additional Metro~area attraction for the City of Shako pee, and
additional recreation facilities for Shakopee residents.

Vision for Multiple Complementary Uses of Quarry Lake
Summary
The location of the Quarry Lake land and water create a unique opportunity for multiple
complementary use of this great resource.
The site is located along Shakopee's major entertainment corridor, and is surrounded by heavy
industry. The Xcel Energy Blue Lake Peaking Power Generation Plant is located just to the south
of the property, and a large Xcel Energy substation is located just to the east. An Industrial Park
is located just to the west, Bituminous Roadways produces asphalt on the northeast shore of the
lake, and Raceway Park is located just to the north of the property.
The site also includes great natural resources, including fields, and a clear, deep spring-fed Lake.
In addition, Xcel Energy owns about 40 acres of woods and fields just to the south of Quarry
Lake. The OHEC organization plans to operate conservation and use programs from an
Educational Center it plans to build on the northwest corner of the fake on 8 acres of land now
owned by Aggregate.
Just to the west of Quarry Lake is the Prior Lake Outlet Channel (Prior Creek), which was
created/enhanced in 1983 to convey water from a constructed outlet on Prior Lake to the
Minnesota River. Prior Creek is critical to the management of water levels on Prior Lake, and is
also a potential site of a Greenway corridor that could eventually connect Prior Lake to the
Minnesota River. The channel is owned and operated by the Prior Lake-Spring Lake Watershed
District, in cooperation with the cities of Prior Lake and Shakopee.
The Quarry Lake Committee believes the land and water can be used by several conservation
and recreation organizations, both in a manner compatible with existing adjacent industrial uses,
and while maintaining the natural features and water quality at the site. Specific uses are
described below. The site would:
. Be used by.residents of the City of Shakopee. and surrounding communities for its
fishing, trails and park amenities
. Serve as a destination for participants, enthusiasts and fans of Waterskiing,
Wakeboarding and other towed water-sports
. 8e used by OHEC for nature, conservation, and related programs and education
. Serve as a destination for Metro area Trout anglers
. Serve as a training ground for SCUBA diving, and area law enforcement water
rescue
. Serve as a safety training and education site for A TV and OHM enthusiasts
. And display a mining and reclamation interpretative exhibit

Program Uses
Committee Members Commitment to Continued Stewardship
The Quarry Lake site includes great natural resources, including trees, fields, and a clear, deep
spring-fed Lake. All members of the group are committed to stewardship and conservation of this
great resource, and believe that the multiple uses described in this document can be pursued
while maintaining the natural features and water quality ofthe site.
Further, the Quarry Lake Committee members believe that this project can become a showcase
for other organizations now competing for scarce natural resources. Members believe this project
will demonstrate the positive outcomes that can be achieved and sustained by a diverse group of
stakeholders -- including heavy industry, recreation, and conservation -- who are committed to
working together cooperatively.
The following is a description of the vision, responsibilities, and obligations of each of the
participants, and the resulting multiple uses of this natural resource.
Aggregate Industries
Aggregate has a strong commitment to the communities where it has operations. Aggregate's
use of Quarry Lake and much of the surrounding land is completed. Aggregate has done a great
job preserving the basic natural beauty and features of the site, and in fact it is Aggregate's
stewardship of the land and water that has created the possibility for the uses described in this
Program Document. Aggregate would like to see the site preserved and used by multiple
organizations for the public good.
Aggregate intends to continue to own and use or lease the land on the northeast shore of the
lake. It is important to Aggregate to retain continued business use of that northeast parcel
without interference from the public or other users of the site.
PLWSA
The PLWSA is a nearly 50 year-old 501(c)(3) non-profit institution dedicated to amateur water-
skiing. The Club's Show Team stages Ski shows around Minnesota and the upper Midwest,
contracting for performances with local Chambers of Commerce and other sponsors of local and
city summertime celebrations. The Club's Competition Team includes a number of individuals
who compete in local, state, regional and national competition as sponsored by USA Waterski.
The PLWSA would like to see the lake become a water-ski attraction -- a destination for metro
area skiers, both for competition practice and tournaments, and for public events. Quarry Lake's
proximity to the corridor that includes the Shakopee attractions ValleyFair, Canterbury Downs,
Murphy's Landing, Raceway Park, and the Renaissance Festival makes this a great location for
this vision.
PLWSA would use designated portions of the surface of the lake full-time during daylight hours
from May through October. During the week the lake would be used for member competition
training and clinics, Show Team practice, Ski Show Exhibitions open to the public, for ski lessons,
and for community events such as disabled skiing. In addition, on the weekends, the lake would
also be used for amateur tournaments open for public viewing, and for special events such as a
professional Water-ski and Wakeboard tournament promoted for public viewing, or water-ski
industry promotional events.
(Water-ski use of the lake would be restricted to PLWSA members only. Special event entrants
that are USA Waterski members would be allowed to use the lake only for the duration of the
event).
.
'.;
The PLWSA would enter into a public-private partnership with the City of Shakopee. The
resulting Use Agreement would describe the PLWSA's rights and obligations for exclusive use of
the surface water from May through October. PLWSA's use would generally be restricted to
along and near the southern and western shores of the lake. Usually, PLWSA members would
be operating only one four-cycle inboard boat on the lake at anyone time. During special events,
there would be no more than three boats operating on the lake at anyone time. This Use
Agreement would also include performance expectations such that the City and. other Quarry
Lake Committee members can hold the PLWSA accountable to deliver on its vision, and to
ensure PLWSA's stewardship of the site.
The Use Agreement would commit the PLWSA to providing initial funding in specified amounts for
the improvements necessary to create public access to the site, including funds toward the cost
of the public road, bridge, and parking lot.
PLWSA would also provide the funds for all water-ski related improvements to the lake, including
public viewing bleachers on the west and south shores of the lake, shoreline/wake-rebound
improvements, and for maintenance and improvements to the boat launch. PLWSA would
continue to carry a $1 m general liability policy at it's own expense. During its scheduled shows,
tournaments, and other public events, PLWSA would display temporary commercial banners,
signs, and advertising from sponsoring agencies and businesses on the grounds to help raise
funds for these expenditures. PLWSA would commit to ongoing in-kind labor contributions meant
to minimize impact to PLWSA use of the site.
PLWSA would be allowed to transport across, build and construct, or store and maintain on the
land or water, two ski jumps and two slalom courses (one along the south shore, another along
the west shore, though only one of these two slalom courses would be in use at anyone time); a
limited number of docks, boats, member boat lifts, storage sheds, and concession stands;
bleachers, a membership building, and to make necessary shoreline improvements to prevent
wake-rebound. Shoreline improvements must be approved in advance by the DNR.
The bleachers and grounds would generally be free and open to the public for viewing. During
special events, including Shows and Competitions, PLWSA may charge an entrance fee or ask
for a donation from spectators who sit in a defined location (e.g. the bleachers). Events would be
scheduled in advance through the City of Shakopee Recreation department in order to avoid
event conflict with other organizations using the land near the lake.
Eventually, the evening Ski Show events and the weekend tournaments and special events could
become an attraction similar to other attractions on the same Shakopee entertainment corridor.
The PLWSA envisions that some of these special eventswould be offered in conjunction with
those attractions, including ValleyFair, and would make the PLWSA an asset to the Shakopee
community. Once public access to the site has been completed, the PLWSA would change its
name to the Shakopee-Prior Lake Water-ski Association.
OHEC
OHEC is a 501 (c)(3) non-profit organization that seeks to increase the public's understanding,
appreciation, and sense of stewardship for the environment, natural resources, professional
resource management and related. activities, as well as their history and heritage. OHEC plans
its own building, parking lot, and programs and activities on land itwould own on 8 acres on the
northwest corner of Quarry Lake. OHEC would acquire this land directly from Aggregate.
Improvements to this land would be funded solely by OHEC and its partners.
OHEC and the public would also have unlimited access to the shoreline of the lake and fishing
piers year-round, and onto the lake itself from November through April for OHEC educational,
fishing, and conservation programs. (Although OHEC would of course be bound by all applicable
law and regulatjons).QHEC event~'WouJd be scheduled in advance through the City of
-i ;~ ':! f :,-".:t;,:
,
r
Shakopee Recreation department in order to avoid event conflict with other organizations using
the site.
Should Xcel Energy approve the following option, OHEC and the general public would also have
access to the Xcel Energy property during certain designated times, as scheduled through the
City's Parks and Recreation Dept., and according to terms of an agreement between Xcel Energy
and OHEC. OHEC would fund liability insurance, would hold Xcel Energy, the PLWSA, and the
City harmless for OHEC member and public use of the site, and would fund any temporary
improvements necessary for their use of both the Xcel Energy and the Quarry Lake site. OHEC
would also contribute toward the public access improvements, including the road, bridge, and
parking lot.
DNR Fisheries and Wildlife Division, and Trails and Waterways Division
The DNR Fisheries and Wildlife urban fishing program would stock Quarry Lake with trout, and
monitor the success of this stocking. Initial tests performed by DNR Fisheries appear to show
that Quarry Lake would serve as good habitat for trout during the winter season. The DNR
requires further testing of the lake during the summer months to determine whether the lake
would support trout through the summer, and if so, whether the trout would be accessible to
anglers fishing from the shore. A Quarry Lake trout fishing opportunity is an important
component, both for Shakopee residents in particular, and for southwest Metro area residents in
general, because today there are only three lakes in the west Metro that offer trout fishing.
Shakopee residents and the general public would have free and equal year-round access to fish
from the shoreline, subject to all Minnesota fishing rules and regulations. Fishing piers may also
be constructed on the lake. OHEC education sessions and special events would have equal
access to the shoreline and fishing piers. As determined by the City of Shakopee, fishing could
also be pursued from ice fish houses placed on the lake during the designated season.
The PLWSA may sponsor special water-ski events during the ski season. During these events,
fishing may be restricted in areas immediately in front of designated viewing areas (e.g. the
bleachers).
Only boats affiliated with the PLWSA would be allowed on the lake, and then only in defined
areas along the south and western shores. Usually, the PLWSA operates only four-cycle inboard
boats for its activities, and usually operates only one boat on the lake at anyone time. There
would be no more than three boats operating at anyone time during special events. Restricting
the general public's access to the water surface during the May through October period would
limit the type of DNR funding possible for this project, but the DNR recognizes and supports the
need for the PLWSA to have a safe and productive home for its activities. The PLWSA would
promise not to fish from boats on the lake, therefore all members of the public would have equal
access to fishing at Quarry Lake.
The DNR would stock and maintain fish in the lake during the winter season. If further DNR
testing determines that the lake provides good habitat for fish in the summer, and that those fish
would be available to anglers from shore, the DNR would stock and maintain fish for the summer
as well. If stocking in the summer is appropriate, the DNR would consider providing funds for
construction of fishing piers around the lake. In either case, the DNR would consider making a
minority contribution toward the public access road, bridge, and parking lot, which would also be
free and open to the public.
The DNR is also interested in cooperating with other organizations to provide opportunities for
A TV/OHM activities for the general public in the Metro Area. There is especially a need to
provide safety training and education for youth and new riders. Cooperating with the OHEC at
this site to include environmental education would be a plus for riders to understand the
environmental issues for their activity.

Xcel Energy
Xcel Energy owns and manages a Peaking Plant and related facilities just to the east and south
of Quarry Lake.
. The Quarry Lake Committee proposes that Xcel Energy consent to allow the City, OHEC,
and the public to have access to certain of its grounds of woods and fields just to the
south of Quarry Lake, and to the west of the Peaking Plant. This option includes access
to Xcel Energy property for rudimentary non-motorized trails in an area satisfactory to
Xcel Energy, and secured from the Blue Lake Peaking Plant according to XceJ Energy
specifications. OHEC has offered to help create interpretive wildlife viewing signage for
visitors along such trails.
. In a related and additional proposal, the group also requests that Xcel Energy consent to
allow scheduled and limited access for trail riding and a state approved safety and
education program for ATV and OHM activities for the general public. This program
would be managed by ARMCA.
Under this second proposal, ARMCA would schedule events on this land in advance
through the City's Parks and Recreation Dept. ARMCA would schedule ATV and OHM
Trail riding and Training sessions on a designated portion of Xcel Energy property, held
usually on weekends. ARMCA would promise Xcel Energy contractually that they would
obey all applicable law, would stay away from the fenced portions of the Peaking Plant,
would not otherwise interfere with power plant operations, and would pOlice the
membership and the public in their use of the site.
All parties understand that Xcel Energy has not considered or approved such a proposal. If Xcel
Energy approves either or both of these options, Xcel Energy would require a written legal
agreement with all concerned parties which would detail rights and responsibilities, and define the
terms of any such agreement. If approved, Xcel Energy would consider allowing improvements
to the Xcel Energy land, but only if those improvements can be easily removed should Xcel
Energy decide for any reason that access is no longer in XceJ Energy's interest.
Xcel Energy also sponsors environmental and other focus grants to organizations with goals
similar to those set out in this program document. Xcel Energy has encouraged the Quarry Lake
Committee to submit grant requests for consideration.
ARMCA
If Xcel Energy approves the second proposal (above), ARMCA members and the general public
would have defined access to the Xcel Energy property for ATV and OHM trail riding and safety
training and education activities, during certain designated times, as scheduled through the City's
Parks and. Recreation Dept., and according to terms ofa legal agreement between Xcel Energy
and ARMCA. Training for these purposes may be provided by approved and certified
organizations other than ARMCA. Underthis proposal, ARMCA would fund liability insurance,
would holdXcel Energy, OHEC, PLWSA, and the City harmless for member and public use of the
site, and would fund any temporary improvements necessary for their use of the site.
Whether or not Xcel Energy approves the second proposal, OHEC would arrange for ARMCA
members to have access to safety training and education facilities located on part of the OHEC 8
acres on the northwest corner of the lake.
ARMCA would fund any temporary improvements necessary for their use of the Xcel Energy and
the OHEC land. In addition, ARMCA would fund minority contributions toward the public access
improvements, including the road, bridge, and parking lot. DNR Trails and Waterways may
contribute to these improvements as well.
,
f
The City of Shakopee
The City of Shakopee plans a Greenway that could eventually run from the southern limits of the
City, through the Dean Lake area, across Hwy 169, pass just to the west of Quarry Lake, and
connect with the DNR Trail. The Greenway would offer Shakopee residents natural access to
and through the Quarry Lake site, and serve as the hub or anchor to the site. The Greenway
extends north and south, and may include a footbridge over Hwy 169. From the Greenway, the
Quarry Lake and Xcel Energy nature sites are to the east, and the OHEC facility and grounds
would be farther north, juxtaposed to the Greenway, along the northwest corner of Quarry Lake.
Moving north across Hwy 169, as it approaches the Xcel Energy property and Quarry Lake, The
Greenway would widen to the east and south. The expanded Greenway would include park and
park-like amenities, including benches, picnic tables, access to walking/jogging trails, children's
play equipment, and in the winter, access to skating and cross-country skiing on or near the lake.
The Greenway would also allow access to public walking/jogging trails around the south, east and
west shores of Quarry Lake. OHEC has offered to help create interpretive wildlife viewing
signage for visitors along the trails.
In an option yet to be proposed to or considered by Xcel Energy, the City would manage access
to a portion of the Xcel Energy property, principally intended for use by Shakopee residents, the
general public, as well as OHEC for its education and conservation programs. This option
includes rudimentary non-motorized trails in an area satisfactory to Xcel Energy, and secured
from the Blue Lake Peaking Plant according to Xcel Energy specifications.
Swimming is not being proposed at the Lake due to the sharp drop-off of the shoreline around the
lake, the proximity to fishing, and the expense associated with developing and staffing a beach.
The City would manage, or designate another manager for, access to the designated SCUBA
Diving and training area for local and area law enforcement rescue personnel (non-boating) to be
located on the north shore of the lake, east side. The PLWSA would install and maintain floating
buoys marking this spot during May through October.
The City would fund, construct and maintain the items necessary for its Greenway vision, for the
park and park-like amenities, the walking/jogging trails, and those required for other similar
amenities. A public road, a bridge over Prior Creek, and a parking lot are necessary to provide
safe public access to the site. The PLWSA, OHEC, the DNR, and ARMCA would fund minority
contributions toward these public access improvements.
* * * * * *
Ownership of the Site
This document proposes that the City of Shakopee become the owner and steward of Quarry
Lake and surrounding land, except for 8 acres on the northwest corner of the Lake that would be
acquired by OHEC, and except for about 22 acres of land on the northeast corner of the lake that
would continue to be owned by Aggregate. In return for City ownership, the City would take a
leadership role in funding, constructing, and maintaining public access to the site.
City ownership of the site has many benefits. The City would create public access to the site,
then operate and regulate use of the land like the City Park it would become. In addition, the City
would serve as the access point for ARMCA, OHEC, and public use of any designated Xcel
Energy property (should Xcel Energy approve our request), manage access to the rescue
training/SCUBA diving section of the Lake, designate and supervise DNR Fisheries as the
manager of the Quarry Lake fish-habitat and fishing piers, and designate and supervise PLWSA
as the manager of the surface water, bleachers, boat launch, boat lifts and other water-ski related
equipment.
,
.
This ownership arrangement contemplates that the City would enter into a long-term Use
Agreement with the PLWSA, similar to the agreement PLWSA now haswith Aggregate
Industries. It would allow PLWSA members exclusive access to the surface water of the Lake
during the May through October timeframe for the purpose of waterskiing practice, instruction,
and clinics; and special events such as water-ski shows and amateur and professional
tournaments open to the public. The Use Agreement would also include performance standards.
Indirect Economic Benefits to the City
PLWSA, OHEC, DNR, and ARMCA use of Quarry Lake would also provide indirect benefit to the
Shakopee community, similar, for instance, to Raceway Park. For example, the local businesses
that cater to the attendees and participants of the attractions now along the Shakopee
entertainment corridor would also benefit from the enthusiasts and fans who would come to see
Shakopee as .a new destination.
OHEC's education and conservation center and the planned urban trout fishing opportunity would
attract numerous visitors. The PLWSA envisions that eventually as many as 5000 people could
attend a public tournament, Ski Show Exhibition, or similar event. In addition, with its planned
name change and in its travels for Shows around the upper Midwest, the PLWSA would serve
indirectly as an ambassador for the City.
Conclusion
The Quarry Lake Committee believes Quarry Lake and the surrounding land can be used by
several recreation and conservation organizations, both in a manner compatible with existing
adjacent industrial uses, and while maintaining the natural features and water quality at the site.
This proposal provides a direct benefit to residents, and provides an indirect economic benefit to
the Shakopee community.
Through adoption of this proposal, the Quarry Lake site would:
. Be used by residents of the City of Shakopee and surrounding communities for its
fishing, trails and park amenities
. Serve as a destination for participants, enthusiasts and fans of Waterskiing,
Wakeboarding and other towed water-sports
. Be used by OHEC for nature, conservation, and related programs and education
. Serve as a destination for Metro area Trout anglers
. Serve as a training ground for SCUBA diving, and area law enforcement water
rescue
. Serve as a safety training and education site for ATV and OHM enthusiasts
. Display a mining and reclamation interpretative exhibit
. Demonstrate the positive outcomes that can be achieved and sustained by a diverse
group of stakeholders -- including heavy industry, recreation, and conservation --
whoare committed toworking together cooperatively
Thank you for your consideration.

The traditional home of the PLWSA has been Prior Lake (the Lake, not the City). Competition
water skiers are increasingly finding it difficult to ski on public water, including Prior Lake. As a
result, the PLWSA leadership has been looking for a new location for the past several years.
The PLWSA's interest in this project is to create a permanent home for the organization, and a
Shakopee destination for Water-skiers, Wakeboarders, and enthusiasts and fans around the
Metro area and the upper Midwest.

COMPETENCY PROVISION
The Competency Provision of US PAP states that, "prior to accepting an assignment or
entering into an agreement to perform any assignment, an appraiser must properly identify
the problem to be addressed and have the knowledge and experience to complete the

property described in the body of this report, as of the appraised date, April 2, 2004.
USE OF THE APPRAISAL
To be used by the owners as a guide in the possible sale of the property.
PROPERTY RIGHTS APPRAISED
The property rights appraised in this appraisal are all those rights inherent in fee simple

.
SCOPE OF THE APPRAISAL
The scope of this appraisal is intended to be a comprehensive asset valuation analysis to
determine the current market value of the subject property given the current conditions of
the real estate market and the physical and financial condition of the asset. In this
appraisal, the most probable market value of the fee simple interest is estimated. The
Sales Comparison Approach has been relied upon to estimate the value of the unimproved
land.
An appraisal is a type of research project. Specifically) it is a special study in real estate
with the objective to estimate market value of the subject property. The appraisal is a
process of research and analysis. The appraisal report is the written summary of those
findings of the process. It is important the reader understands the appraisal process, the
terminology, the factual materials presented about the subject and comparables, and the
appraiser's Assumptions and Limiting Conditions.
It must be pointed out the appraisal is limited to estimating, not determining, the market
value of the real property, each as defined herein, as of the date and interest specified in
the report.
Information from the client is not generally verified with other parties unless indicated in
the report. Information from the client is trusted and believed to be correct. General
market and environmental as well as neighborhood and site analysis information is from
the public and published sources as well as from the various individuals believed to be
familiar with same. Comparable property data is confirmed with the party familiar with
the transaction and with public records and/or listings. Research and information of this
type is usually limited to a few sources unless otherwise indicated.
Comparable property research data include courthouse records, market information files
and records, real estate listings of comparable properties for sale or lease and interviews
with knowledgeable agents or brokers. Information from others is believed to be correct
but accuracy cannot, of course, be guaranteed.
Inspection of the comparable properties, cited in the report, is limited to visual off-site
inspection. Inspection of interior and inspection at time of sale is seldom, if ever) possible.
The appraiser has not examined the title of the subject and further assumes marketability
of title with no clouds or adverse value influence) such as encroachments) liens, or
easements. Please note: the appraiser is not particularly trained in the inspection of
mechanical, plumbing or electrical equipment, insulation, soil stability and suitability for
construction or verification of the presence or absence of toxic materials.
All possible appraisal techniques are not necessarily used) only those believed to be most
appropriate for this property type and market. . The appraisal techniques are intended to
9
e e .
.
meet or exceed the standards, ethics and rules of the Uniform Standards of Professional
Appraisal Practice (USPAP) of the Appraisal Foundation.
Market value, as defined herein, is estimated as of the date indicated. Please note and be
aware that market value is dynamic and the market's (re) action of buyers and sellers for
such properties is active and vibrant and changes over time.
The appraisal does not include a specific study of any type other than the conventional
appraisal approaches to estimate market value. It does not include other special studies
such as market study, feasibility study, market analysis, or highest and best use analysis,
except as part ofa conventional appraisal. The study of the subject and the market may
involve analysis of the infonnatio~ similar to one or more of these as part of the appraisal
process. However, no stand-alone study of the subject has been made.
Infonnation from others, including the client, is not nonnally confirmed with any other
source, unless the appraiser has reason to doubt the information.
The scope of the use of the appraisal is intended for persons or firms, familiar with
appraising, real estate and real property terminology, methodology and reporting. Please
call or write us if you have any questions about the appraisal and report, its use, terms,
scope and research or analytical methodology used.
All infonnation in the report, revealed from the inspection of the subject and the plans
provided, is considered primary information. Other data in the report may be considered
primary in that it was originally collected by the appraiser, but secondary, because it may
be from published or unpublished origins, and in some cases, either primary or secondary
verbal sources, such as property listing, newspaper articles, research articles or other
services. All infonnation used is believed reasonably correct, but accuracy cannot be
guaranteed. Analytical conclusions are those of only the appraiser signing the report.
However, other people may have assisted in the research and preparation of the report.

METROPOLITAN AREA DATA
The subject property is located in the Twin Cities Metropolitan Area. This area is made
up of seven counties and has an area of approximately 3000 square miles.
Located within the Twin Cities Metropolitan Area are approximately 136 cities and 33
townships. Each of these together with each of the seven counties have their own
separate units of government. The cities of Minneapolis and St.. Paul constitute the hub of
the area.
There is also a Metropolitan Council that has been given certain authorities by the State
Legislature to control and influence growth and development within the Twin City area.
Their efforts during recent years have encouraged development to occur in areas either
served by public sewer and water, or where future services are planned. The outer
boundary of this area is referred to as the Metropolitan Urban Service Area (MUSA) Line.
The population of the Twin Cities Metropolitan Area, was 1,990,192 in 1980, 2,288,721
in 1990 (up 15%), and 2,642,056 in 2000 (up 15%). It has increased substantially since.
The area constitutes about 1/2 of the total state population. There has been considerable
residential movement and development in the suburbs in recent decades. Both
Minneapolis and St. Paul have, however, had considerable downtown development and
remain economically strong.
Monel! magazine has rated the Twin Cities Metropolitan Area among the best places to
live in the United States. The publication gave high marks in the areas of employment,
real estate, health care, art, and education, raising a family, recreation, cost of living and
climate.
The Twin Cities is the center of the Upper Midwest's transportation network and includes
barges, trucking, rail and air transportation. Due to its strategic location at the head of the
Mississippi River, the Twin Cities are the home of six barge lines and are served by over
72 barge carriers. The Twin Cities comprise the nation's seventh largest trucking
distribution center, with over 100 first class carriers. Additionally, there are seven trunk
line railroads with over 5,400 miles of rail trackage. Seventeen national/international, and
eight local/regional air carriers serve the Twin Cities with nearly 12 million passengers
passing through the airport each year.
The Twin Cities Metro Area is served by a good freeway system. 1-35 goes north-south
through the area. It splits north and south of the Twin Cities with 35W going through
Minneapolis and 35E through St. Paul. 1-94 goes east-northwest through the area. 1-494
and 1-694 form a circumferential route around the cities. 1-394 extends from downtown
Minneapolis approximately 12 miles west to the western suburbs. Rush hour highway
congestion exists, but it is moderate compared to other large cities around the country.
The area is served by a bus system, but no light rail transit system.

The Twin Cities has a strong economy. It is one of the largest commercial centers
between Chicago and the West Coast. It is the headquarters for many national and
international corporations. According to Fortune magazine, 16 Fortune 500 companies
are based in Minnesota, ranking the state 11 th in the nation. Unemployment has over the
years been below the national average. Recent rates have been under 3% with the national
average around 5%. Because the Capitol City of 81. Paul is included in the Area,
government employment comprises a consistent and stable segment of the region's
economy. The area is characterized by good schools and colleges and a resulting well
trained and stable work force. Because of the degree of public service provided, however,
taxes are among the higher in the country.
The real estate market in the Twin City Metropolitan Area is generally strong. This will of
course vary from community to community depending upon age of the community,
availability of developable land, and the attitude of the community and the Metropolitan
Council towards development in the community.
Office occupancy in the metro downtown areas is relatively high. Vacancy rates in
apartment housing have declined. Home sales have been good in recent years. There is
presently an under supply of land available for residential development. Be9ause of this, in
areas that are platted and developed, lots often sell fast and at fairly high prices.
In summary, the Twin Cities Metropolitan Area experiences a very strong business
climate, diverse industry, low unemployment, sustained steady growth, and a strong real
estate market. These conditions appear to remain fairly constant through the various ups
and downs of the economy. The Area is experiencing gradual improvement from the
overbuilding of the 1980's and the recession of the early 1990's. The continued low
unemployment rate, coupled with improvements in the industrial, retail and residential
sectors have placed the Area in a good position for future growth. The Area continues to
be a strong diversified economic center with favorable potential for expansion. The
economic base. should continue to grow and have a positive impact on the real estate
market in the Area.

STATEMENT REGARDING IDGHEST AND BEST USE
The highest and best use of a property is that reasonable and probable use that will
support the highest value as of the effective date of the appraisal. The use must be
physically possible, legally permissible, feasible, and a use that would produce the greatest
monetary return to the owner.
Physically Possible --- size, shape, topography, and soil conditions are
considerations for a land tract. Size, design, and condition would be
considerations for improved property.
Legally Permissible --- zoning, private restrictions, environmental regulations,
and existing leases would be considerations.
Financial Feasible --- potential uses would have to produce a positive return to
the property.
Greatest Monetary Return --- The use that provides the greatest return on the
owner's investment.
There may be cases where the highest and best use of a property is different than the
existing use. The existing use will normally continue until such time as the value of the
bare land, less the demolition cost of improvements on the property, exceeds the value of
the property in its existing use.
The estimate of highest and best use is the basis upon which the appraisal is made. The
use is not always obvious. Sometimes special analysis is necessary before an opinion of
highest and best use can be found.
The subject is zoned 1-2 - Heavy Industry Zone. It is also subject MIN - Mining Overlay
Zone.
It is my opinion that the highest and best use is for industrial development. *
* This portion of the appraisal is the northwest comer numbered 2 on the site sketch map
and is 8 acres in size.

EXPOSURE (MARKETING) TIME
There is turnover in properties similar to the subject. I feel that based on the location, size
and current market conditions that a reasonable marketing time would be 6-18 months.

PART III: VALUATION PROCESS
e e
. THE APPRAISAL PROCESS
The valuation of prop~rty is generally undertaken by one or mere of the three recognized apprc~ches to value.
1. Summation, or Cost, Approach
2. Comparison, or Market Data Approach
3. Economic, or Income Approach
Whenever applicable, all three approaches to value are used to provide a means for checking and counter
checking the results obtained. A correlation of the three approaches is made, and the final value estimate is
based upon the appraiser's judgment of the comparative reliability of the methods used.
COST APPROACH
Under this method, a value is derived by estimating the replacement cost new of the building, and other
improvements based on today's labor and material prices, and present construction techniques located in the
general locality of the property. A market analysis is also made of similar newly constructed buildings in the
locality, with adjustments for comparability to arrive at a current unit cost for replacement. Prom the total
cost of replacement, a deduction is made for the depreciation, which has occurred to the improvements.
Accrued depreciation is usually in the form of three types.
1. Physical depreciation (loss in value. due to wear and tear and general lack of
maintenance).
2. Economic obsolescence or depreciation (loss in value due to influence outside
of the property).
3. Functional obsolescence or depreciation (loss in value contributed to functional
inadequacy, newer and better designs, etc.).
The land value as determined from the marketplace, by comparison of similar market transactions with
adjustments for the various differences in comparability is then added to the depreciated value of the
improvements to arrive at an indicated value estimate by the Cost Approach.
Note: At the appraisal date the site was unimproved. The appraisal of the unimproved land is based on the
Market Data Approach.

DISCUSSION OF ADJUSTMENTS .
Property Interests
The property interests appraised reflect fee simple title. All of the comparables involved
transfer offee simple title, requiring no adjustment.
Financing
The value of the subject is appraised based on "cash". Owner financed sales often sell
somewhat high. All of the sales were for cash or cash equivalent and no adjustments have
been made.
Conditions of Sale
- .. All the sales appear to be arms length transactions; thus no adjustments.
Time
I talked with a broker who has been active in marketing the adjoining Industrial Park,
where the comparable sales are located. He advises that prices have been essentially flat
for the last 4 to 5 years. Based on this information, I have not made any adjustments for
time.
Zoning
The subject and the comparable sales are all zoned for industrial use and no adjustments
have been made.
Location
Sales 1 and 8 are considered similar to the subject and not adjusted. Sales 3,4, 5, 6 and 7
are considered superior and have been given negative adjustments.
Utilities
Utilities are similar to the subject and not adjusted.
Topography
The sales and subject are similar and not adjusted.
Soils
Soils are similar and not adjusted.
43
. e e
Size
Smalier tracts normally sell for more per acre or square foot than larger tracts. Sales 1,6
and 8 are larger and have been given positive adjustments. Sale 5 is smaller and given a
negative adjustment. Sales 3, 4 and 7 are similar to the subject and not adjusted.
Shape
The subject and sales are similar enough from a development standpoint that no
adjustments have been made.
CORRELATION OF LAND VALUE
The sales used indicate values of$1.63, $1.66, $1.80, $1.39, $1.75, $1.37, and $1.69 per
-."- sq. ft. for the subject property. The average of the indicators is $1.61 per sq. ft. I feel
that Sales 1, 3,4 and 8 are the best indicators of value.
Based on this information, it is my opinion that the fair market value of the land as of
April 2, 2004 is $1.70 per square foot.
8 Acres = 348,480 Sq. Ft. @ $1.70 Per Sq. Ft. = $592,416
Round to $592,500*
* Note: This is for site number 2 on the sketch. It is the 8 acres at the northwest corner
ofthe larger parcel.
44
e - .
MARKET APPROACH AS IMPROVED
This approach is subjective in theory, the premise being that value is created from outside
the property, and is defined as the value indicated by recent sales in the market.
This approach requires comparing the property with other similar properties. Data is
gathered from prices paid for other properties, prices asked by owners offering to sell and
offers made by prospective purchasers. The data is analyzed, interpreted and rated by
units of comparison with the subject in arriving at an estimate of value by the approach.
When there is an active real estate market and sales of many similar type properties, this
approach tends to be the most reliable and demonstrates the reactions of the market.
-- There are no buildings on the property and the Market Approach, as improved, does not
apply.
INCOME APPROACH
This approach to value is based upon the prospective income, which can reasonably be
derived from ownership of the property. The gross income stream is projected on an
annual basis, and from this expenses are deducted. The remaining net income is
capitalized to arrive at an estimate of value
Land similar to the subject is not typically rented and the Income Approach does not
apply.
45
.r
e e
ESTIMATED VALUE OF THE REMAINING 96 ACRES
Parcell, the 200 foot +/- strip (22 acres) ofland along the west, south and east side of
Quarry Lake (please refer to the site sketch).
The quarry lake - 74+/- acres.
The zoning is 1-2 - Heavy Industrial. I talked with the Shakopee planning department
about the likelihood that zoning could be changed and the response was, probably not.
The lake itself has been leased by a water ski club. There is no money rent but apparently
the lease protects the owners from any liability for injuries caused by accidents.
I searched for sales of properties that would be similar and could not find any. On the
- following pages are 7 sales of wetland properties that took place between 1990 and 2001.
Sale 7 is similar in that it has a 100 +/- acre lake and 180 acres of land surrounding it but
in a flood plain. The land portion of the subject is not in a flood plain but because ofit's
shape has limited potential for industrial use.
The subject is being considered for recreational use with the lake being stocked with fish.
The lake is spring fed which provides cool water that should support trout and apparently
the old quarry does not support plant life which is also appropriate for trout habitat.
Since the shape of the land does not lend itself to industrial development and the zoning
does not allow for other types of development, the proposed recreational use, to be
operated by the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources or similar organization, is
the highest and best use.
The seven sales outlined earlier have some similarities and ranged in price from $3,015 to
$5,556 per acre over a period from December 1990 through June 2001. All of those sales
were either wetlands or in a flood plain. They are all relatively close to the subject
physically.
Because the subject land is not in a flood plain, it is more useable than the sales and would
lend itself to, for example, a boat launch or people fishing along the shore line. In my
opinion, the subject is superior to all of these sales for the reasons outlined above.
I have appraised the adjoining industrial 8 acres at $1. 70 per square foot or $74,052 per
acre. It is my opinion, because the size is much larger and the uses are limited, that
Parcell and the lake have a value equal to 15% of the 8 acre appraised value of $74,052
per acre.
46
e e
$74,052 x 15% = $11,108 per acre
Parcel 1, 22 acres, the lake 74 acres = 96 acres total.
96 acres @ $11,108 per acre = $1,066,368
Round to: $1,066,400
COMBINED VALUE
'-
8 acres industrial: $592,500
Parcel 1 and the Lake: $1,066.400
Total: $1,658,900

Property Taxes - Payable 2004
Property Tax Information Assessed Market Value Information
State Tax Rate 54.45% Commercial $517,557,767
Municipal Tax Rate 33.94% Residential $1,355,254,853
County Tax Rate 38.55% Other $74,247,055

Total Tax Rate 156.73% Total $1,947,059,675
Minnesota commercial real estate taxes are based upon market value of taxable property as set by the local assessor. To compute the tax for
the year 2004, first compute the tax capacity by multiplying all properly value up to $150,000 times .015, plus any value over $150.000
times ,02. Tax capacity times the tax rate equals taxes owed. In some localities where voters have approved referendums, an additional
referendum tax must be added, calculated by multiplying the referendum tax rate times the total market value of the commercial property.
Net tax capacity on a $200,000 business property: ($150,000 * .015) + ($50,000 * .02) = $2,250 + $1,000 = $3,250
